Alas it persists even after long periods that my emac is turned off!
Both machines are set to Immediate removal on receipt. I get this at
JD Wetherspoon too! Yes I do graham so I can prioritise emails that
I need to see first. I belong to so many things this is my
streamlining process and I have to repeat for the umpteenth time the
emac has no such problems on 10.4. The problem is 10.6!! Why should
I have streamline my needs for a faulty programme. Sort out the
programme I say, not how many emails I have that work on one machine
perfectly but not the other! Sort out 10.6!!!!!
Best, Peter

Another thought ... your host may be blocking you for too many
attempts at retrieving mail in a specific period. Most hosts have
limits on the number of mail pickups, to stop people setting their
mail packages looking for mail every 10 seconds (believe me, it
happens!!). If your pickup interval is too frequent AND you're
looking for mail from a large number of POP accounts, you could be
triggering this. I have multiple email address and multiple
accounts, but I have aliases (or forwarders) for all the addresses
in any one domain name. And then I pick everything up in one go. Do
you really need that many individual POP accounts?

I often get the following problem.
If, for instance, I have my laptop and my ipod touch both pointing
to the same email account, then, if one has recently been using
it, the other can't gain access. It takes about 20 minutes for my
system to go neutral again, so I can access it using another device.
If your emac is accessing email automatically and rather
frequently, it may be blocking anything else from gaining access.
The way I know this is happening is that I'm asked for the account
password, and, when I put it in, I am asked all over again. I quit
mail, wait a bit, and then relaunch mail and try again.
So it might be that your emac is trying to access your mail
account every minute or 5 minutes, or so.
Just a thought: and not unlike other thoughts that have appeared
this morning.

Hi Peter
I would be tempted for this domain to move to google apps
hosting, you get 50 users free with 8GB per user. It should
suffice for your 35 email addresses!
You could set up one account for yourself, then add in the 34
other email addresses as nicknames (assuming you're the only
person who needs access to them). Then add each email address as
a comma separated line to your account in mail eg. Email
Address : [email protected], [email protected],
ad...@ethical,me,uk. That way you'll be able to select which
address you want to send from and have everything coming in as
just one IMAP account.
If more than one person needs access to each email address, just
set each email address up individually as an IMAP account in Mail
(after configuring each user individually on google apps of course).
Or a mixture of the two methods. It's always better to collate
email addresses into single accounts where possible, reduces the
amount of connections made to the server.
